> My honest first piece of advice: for most small businesses, the right answer isn't a standalone DLP product - it's turning on the DLP you already pay for. Standalone DLP tools need policy tuning and someone to triage alerts, which is where small-business deployments usually die. Here's how I'd rank the options:

Business Premium already includes basic DLP for Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive at no extra cost, so you can block credit card numbers and SSNs leaving via email or file sharing this week. The catch: **endpoint** DLP (USB drives, copy/paste, local file moves) and Teams chat DLP are *not* in Business Premium - those need E5, the E5 Compliance add-on, or the Purview Suite add-on. For many small businesses the email/cloud coverage is 80% of the actual risk.
